Blackburn Rovers 08-09 Away Kit
Blackburn’s 08/09 away shirt has a navy blue base with royal blue trim on the collar and sleeve ends and white and royal blue strips running down the center of the shirt (broken by the CP logo).
You have to see it to believe it, but I think Umbro have done an excellent job with the away kit and come up with a progressive shirt design that perfectly accommodates the Crown Paints logo.

Manchester United 08/09 Third Shirt
Manchester United’s 08/09 Third Kit is all blue, and looks more like last season’s keeper’s kit than anything else.
Update: It’s the official third kit folks - and a very sweet blue kit at that.
Blue might not be the preferred color for most fans (last season’s black away kit was wildly popular) but this shade of blue is quite good and makes for a very attractive shirt overall. Plus I loved it when last season’s home shirt was revealed and EVDS was wearing this color for the goalkeeper’s shirt.

Manchester City 08-09 Home Kit
Manchester City’s 08/09 home kit will be launched on Saturday 19 July (in association with Official Club Sponsor, Thomas Cook, and Official Sportswear Partner, Le Coq Sportif).
With LCS onboard City’s shirts were a touch different than the rest of the bunch last season and this year it’s more of the same - while the shirt is all light-blue with a swash of white running from the collar down the left side, the shorts are a different matter with the right side blue and the rest all-white.
Eye-catching, to say the least.

Manchester City 08-09 Away Kit
Manchester City’s 08/09 away shirt launches on Monday 21 July. This year’s strips are a return to tradition, with the popular red and black stripes for the away shirt, first introduced by Malcolm Allison in 1968 and worn for many of the Club’s victorious domestic and European cup campaigns of the late 60s and early 70s.
The black and red stripes have invoked comparisons with Milan but in reality the two shirts are far, far different.
City’s third kit will be available later this summer.

Barcelona 08-09 Away Shirt
Barcelona’s 08/09 away kit is all-yellow with a vertical stripe in club colours running down the left side of the shirt on the front (neatly encapsulating the Barcelona logo) and navy blue collar and shorts.
In terms of the base color it’s a lot better than the last year’s away kit although one highlight of Barcelona’s kits in recent years has been how well everything - from the logo to the inscriptions and color combinations - fits together and credit for that goes to Nike for paying attention to detail.
